Two coupled channel effects connected with kaon pair production in proton-proton collisions are discussed. (1) Although there is ample evidence that the antikaon is strongly attracted to the recoil protons in pp -> K+pK-p, residual effects…
We compare the recent COSY data on the total $pp{\to}p\Lambda{K^+}$ and $pp{\to}p\Sigma^0{K^+}$ cross sections with the predictions from two boson exchange models that either are based solely on $\pi$ and $K$ exchange or include $\pi$,…
We report a theoretical study of the $pp\to p K^+\Lambda(1405)$ reaction, which was recently investigated at COSY-J\"{u}lich by using a 3.65 GeV/c circulating proton beam incident on an internal hydrogen target. The reaction is driven by…
